I am FIRED UP to begin the first High Ticket Group Coaching Session THIS week! 

This week we’re going to talk about creating your High Ticket Offer…

• how do you know what to include in your offer?
• what content HAS to be included, what DOESN’T? 
• what are the non-negotiable for clients to have success?
• how do I provide great support and coaching?
• what should I charge?! 

You’ll leave with an offer “recipe” and your homework will be to complete your own offer before our next session…it’s going to be great. 

Sam Hill

PS. Are you not signed up? What are you waiting for? Send a message to the coaching team and they will get you all the details. See you there. 

Have you ever wanted to jump on a call and ask a quick question to get unstuck?

Well, we heard you and we are now offering a variety of opportunities for you to talk to the coaches and other Growth Tools Clients. 

Masterminds: There are two masterminds available. One meets Tuesday morning and the other is Thursday afternoon. This is an opportunity to brainstorm with other members, receive advanced training, and collaborate.  

Office Hours: The office hours are drop-in casual. Come for 10 minutes, ask a quick question, say hello, brainstorm with other clients, or stay for the whole hour. There is no "on time" or late or any obligation to stay the whole time. 

15-Minute Check-In: There are quick 15 minute private meetings with one coach to discuss one sticking point. Please be sure to share your specific topic so that we can make the most of our time together. 

You can use this link to schedule any of these meetings today:

We look forward to talking to you soon!

The Growth Tools Coaching Team

We have a few coaching updates for you this month, and we are excited to bring them to you. 

You can watch the video recording of our announcement, or you can read below for the highlights.

Enhancement #1: 90-Day Reviews 💥 

We have a brand new process for getting your 90-day review completed and we’re excited to tell you about it. 

Reviewing your business every 3 months helps you and us to gain clarity on where your business sits currently and if you’re on track to reach your goals.

Here’s how the 90-day review process works: 

1. You’ll receive an email 2 days before it becomes available inside your Client Dashboard
2. Log into your Client Dashboard
3. Click on the 90 Day Review
4. Fill it out & send to us
5. Wait for our Feedback
6. Approve our feedback, recommendations, and/or changes to your Marketing Plan
7. Get back to work

Enhancement #2: Video Asks 💥 

We have a new way for you to report your wins called a Video Ask. 

We’re excited to roll this out to you because documenting a “win” helps you gain clarity about what’s working well inside your business…

...and provides additional motivation for you to continue working toward your next business win. 

It also gives inspiration to others who may be struggling with what you just overcame!

Our very first Video Ask was completed by Austin Church from Knoxville TN (he serves ambitious freelancers & consultants, helping them do the work they enjoy while making a great income). 

Quick highlights from Austin’s Video Ask:

Started the beta version of a new group coaching program

• He was overthinking what should go in it, what it should cost, was the offer “right”, will anyone care, will he launch to crickets, what if he got only 1 person in a group program?

What he learned and feels great about:

• Relief that he got over his analysis paralysis and wanting it to be perfect
• Pushed it out imperfectly, people bought, they’re having a great time while he’s in his sweet spot coaching them while building the program 

Advice:

• You don’t know if someone wants something until they pay for it, so don’t spend months laboring over every detail that people might not want anyway

Austin’s Final thought:

• Be kind to yourself if you haven’t achieved what you want yet, and realize that even those you look up to as “great online business owners” weren’t always where you see them now. They had to go through the same journey of ups and downs that you did.

Upcoming New GU Feature: High Ticket Mastermind 💥 

Sam Hill, our very own Director of Sales, is hosting a four-week workshop on how to create and sell high ticket packages. Some of you even emailed in and asked to pay for it! 

However, we want to give this offer to all our current active clients. 

Yes, for FREE. 

This is a huge bonus for those of you selling or wanting to sell high-ticket offers. You can check out all the details below and if it is a good fit for you and your goals, simply drop the team a note via your Client Dashboard here and we will get you signed up. 

Those that sign up will get an email with all of the details and the links to join live and receive the bonuses as well. 

The workshop begins in April, so don't delay. Let us know soon if you want to be included.

This is a great fit for all course creators, coaches, and consultants who are looking to charge MORE for their knowledge.

You’ll learn how to:

• Develop a 7-figure high ticket offer using our proven recipe (stop guessing and get it right the first time)
• Charge 2x-10x more (and create even more client success stories than ever)
• Build a high ticket funnel that actually books calls (with the right people that want to pay for your help)
• Assemble a sales script that feels right without being a sales superstar (and yes it converts!)
• Scale your high ticket program (You don’t need to trade time for money. There is a better way.)
• Fulfill your program using our secrets to help manage your load (It took us years to figure this out, but you don't have to do it the hard way)

Filled my high-ticket sales program thanks to Sam Hill. $55k additional revenue in 5 months. - Chad Allen

Coaching Corner: Changes in your business ❓

What To Do When You Need to Adjust GU Frameworks To Your Business & What To Do When Your Business Changes 

It’s OK to adjust our teachings to your “voice”, your specific business type, etc

• We provide you the framework, such as an email sequence
• You are free to adjust that framework so that it fits your business best

Can GU help ANY type of business” - Yes, we can

• We help the following types of businesses:
• SaaS, course, coaching, e-commerce, physical products, etc
• As Erin & Matt discussed, the problem areas are typically not enough leads and/or sales
• That’s exactly what we help solve for your business :)

If you change something in your business, tell us and we’ll adjust the plan for you:

• Changing niches 180 degrees? Reach out and we’ll adjust your Marketing Plan
• You might think, “You set up my Marketing Plan for this direction, but I don’t want to ask you to change it for this new direction” 
• Ask us right away and we’ll help you pivot 
• Don’t feel alone here. We’ll help you!

Mindset Moment 💪 

The importance of mindset around a few partnership issues:

Will you do ALL my partnership work for me?

• In reality, you don’t want us to do it ALL
• You’re the expert and know your business best. We’re experts about writing pitches so that you know the ins and outs and the little details that make that pitch hit home to your potential partner best. 
• Learn the entire process first and you can always outsource aspects of it later that isn’t in your “sweet spot”
• But you need to know the process 100% as the business owner so that you can train someone else to do it

Don’t I need to have a product first before doing partnerships?

• No!
• If you have a small list, don’t let this limiting belief stop you from getting what your business needs: 
• New subscribers, an audience
• Again, you do not need a product! :)
• There is absolutely no reason to wait until you have a product offer to start using Partnerships as a lead generator

I have a product but my list is small and people with big lists won’t partner with me.

• This is another limiting belief that we want to help you move past
• They will partner with you because they need your content
• Still doubt that? Do a simple podcast tour (they NEED you to provide them podcast content!)

Success Stories 🎉

Here are some clients who have made great progress recently:

• Chaitra: My business used partnerships to grow to six-figures in the first year!
• Erin: I've booked $5k in client contracts this week!
• Paul & Maria: I sold my first course within 30 minutes of Simple Live Launch email #1!
• Kristina: I was invited to speak at a Google event!
• Tara: We signed 3 new authors in February. With these contracts, our number of signed authors for 2021 has increased 80% over our best years thus far. And it's only February!
• Scott: Made $1400 on a partnership webinar! 

Congrats to all of you!

Do you want to be in a GU Mastermind?

We recently started offering a Mastermind element to Growth University and this is your invitation.

Andy heads up this exciting way for you to network with other business owners and help one another as you go about your business activities.

Contact Andy inside your GU Client Dashboard if you’d like to learn more about our Mastermind feature. Just say, "Hey Andy, I would love to be in a mastermind!"

Coming Soon: Recurring Launch & Webinar Playbooks 💥 

After you complete a goal, like setting up your partnership program, we will help you keep that momentum going by reminding you every week to revisit that goal and take action.

This is what we call a recurring action item, and it can be identified by the circular arrow. 

Our goal is to make it more likely that you keep doing what you know you need to do and give us the ability to step in when we see that you're not.

Soon, we’ll have the ability to help you in the same fashion with your recurring launch and monthly sales webinar schedules.  These recurring playbooks make it harder to forget to consistently perform these two critical areas inside your overall sales funnel.

Our Coaching Calendar: Never Wonder When We’re Open Or Closed

The holidays are coming.

We want to remind you of our coaching calendar and the days that Growth Tools will be closed in preparation. You can find the list below.

We would also like to remind you to do that same for yourself. Be sure to set some boundaries and take time to enjoy yourself this holiday season. 

• Choose days where you do not work
• Communicate that with your clients
• Set up autoresponders and plan ahead to prevent emergencies

Please don't hesitate to reach out if you want help implementing this for yourself. 

Mindset Moment 💪 

A few months ago, we started asking you for your weekly win.

Each week, we ask you to share and reflect on the previous week and share just something either very small or very large, something, some positive thing to happen the previous week.

And those have been awesome. Your wins are very encouraging to us. 

There are several reasons we did that. 

• We want you to start each week thinking about the positive things
• It's too easy to focus on the negative
• We want you better prepared to deal with the challenges of running a business

This month we want to remind you of the importance of tracking your wins and remember to include relevant revenue information when doing so. Sharing your wins helps you and us keep track of your revenue increases as we work together.

Tracking your wins reminds you of the progress you’re making and helps weather any storms that you encounter along the way. 

Success Story

Andy discussed the great progress Yuvika has made recently with her first partner pitches.

In the beginning, she didn't have clarity on her brand. After fixing that, Yuvika decided to make partnerships a large part of her lead generation and sales process, researched “best fit” partners, wrote those pitches, and started getting yeses.

Congrats to Yuvika and all of you who are working your marketing plan action items and getting results for your businesses!

Stay tuned . . . . 🎁

We’ll have another update coming in a few weeks - and it’ll be chock full of news about several upgrades we’ve been anxiously awaiting to roll out. We’re stoked to tell you more about them.

In the meantime, jump into your coaching dashboard and take action.
